Please tell me issues to put and d solution to this case..

Radha, as an infant was recovered from one of the remote villages of Rajasthan as
one of the survivors of female infanticide by an NGO named Stree Shakti. In Delhi
she was institutionalized, during her adolescent years, she faced ill events which
added to her agony. This cultivated a deep rooted hatred against males of the
Society. This instilled hatred towards marriage and she through Stree Shakti, of
which she became a volunteer, retaliated against the ill-custom of female
infanticide prevailing in the society, especially highlighting the practice in her own
village. She made an example of herself to spread her views against female
infanticide; she also featured in a documentary on the same topic which required
her to visit her village. This created wide awareness amongst the public. The media
hype angered the villagers and in retaliation Radha was warned by the village heads
not to interfere in the activities of the village. Ignoring this warning, Radha
continued to spread her views against female infanticide. One night, during her stay in the village, few villagers including the village heads raped her to teach her a
lesson. The criminal action is being taken by the appropriate authorities. After two
months of the incident, she detected that she is pregnant. Radha decided to carry on
her crusade and to set an example in the society. Radha wanted to give birth to the
child, however due to the circumstances of Radha from her birth, she was
determined to have only a girl child and wanted to avail the right of abortion under
Medical Termination of Pregnancy Act, 1971 if a male fetous was detected.
Therefore she approached a doctor for sex determination. The doctor and many
other medical practitioners having the facility rejected her request. She was advised to approach the appropriate authorities for sanctioning the test. She approached the Central Supervisory Board under Section 4 (3) (v) for usage of pre-natal diagnostic techniques under foregoing special circumstances. The Board dismissed her application citing that she does not fall under the category as specified under
section 4 read with Section 6 of the Pre Conception and Pre-Natal Diagnostic
Techniques (Prohibition of Sex Selection) Act, 1994.
Now she has approached the Honourable Supreme Court under Article 32 to
challenge the constitutionality of the Pre Conception and Pre-Natal Diagnostic
Techniques (Prohibition of Sex Selection) Act, 1994 under foregoing these special
circumstances.

By the way, how much time you could have saved for yourself in writing 'd' in place of "the" out of the whole sentence, "Please tell me issues to put and d solution to this case."

Mind it, if you are coming to this forum with some problem, you should keep in mind that you are not sending SMS on your mobile and trying to save your time.

On your direction, "Argue on behalf of Radha," can you clarify, are we your students to argue before you to get that examined by you to score some marks on your evaluation.

Your classroom exercises should be discussed, either with your classmates or be posted in the forum section.
